The Nosler 7.62x39mm 123gr Ballistic Tip Hunting (50ct) is a premium factory-loaded rifle cartridge crafted for serious hunters. This round features a 123 gr spitzer-profile Ballistic Tip® hunting bullet seated in Nosler premium brass, designed to deliver reliable expansion, deep penetration, and outstanding accuracy on deer-sized game.

The polymer-tipped bullet initiates large-diameter mushrooming on impact while the fully tapered jacket and boat-tail base promote aerodynamic efficiency and long-range precision. This configuration ensures consistent performance at all practical hunting distances.

Fired from a 24″ test barrel with a 1‑9.45″ twist, this load produces a muzzle velocity of approximately 2,350 fps and muzzle energy of about 1,508 ft‑lbs. Downrange energy remains effective out to 800 yards, with retained energy of 553 ft‑lbs at 500 yards and 292 ft‑lbs at 800 yards.

Trajectory data (100‑yard zero) shows –23.3″ at 300 yards and –170.1″ at 600 yards; with a 200‑yard zero, it drops –13.5″ at 300 yards. These figures support accurate shot placement for ethical hunting.

Packaged in a factory-sealed box of 50 rounds, this ammunition features non-corrosive primers and reloadable brass cases, making it suitable for bolt-action and semi-auto rifles chambered in 7.62x39mm. Ideal for hunters seeking a high-performance, reliable option for deer, antelope, and hogs.
